Depends how hipster you are.
RTS market, well, except SC2 and CoH2 is as good as dead.
Sins of a Solar Empire and Ultimate General Gettysburg are about the only other RTS games I enjoy at the moment.
Most other RTS games I have bought have been a major letdown. The best thing about Red Alert 3 was the hammy acting

me as well, still exited, like every day.
Has been like that for quite a while.
God, Wilson, must feel awkward to say stuff like that all the time.
And then again, I am very happy to see some positive press about the game. I still love the game.

Don't forget Wargame, though I still believe that 50% of the people buy it for the in-game chat.

Yay, CoH2 wins by default!
It still counts, right?

“People do come into the franchise from lots of different access points. The campaign is one that’s generally a linear experience, so people will play it once or twice and then transition into multiplayer, co-op or competitive PvP.”
Once a compstomper, always a compstomper. Also I'm pretty sure the majority of people who play the campaign once or twice never play the game again afterwards.
“From us just looking at how Company of Heroes 2 is performing, and we look back at Company of Heroes 1, it is - across the board - outperforming CoH 1,” Wilson points out

i started playing the coh franchise right before the closed beta for coh2 started. the way the game works was very new to me so i started with playing compstomps for hundreds of hours and watched danes casts to get accostumed to the game mechanics (i played some automatches in the beginning but i sucked terribly). when i felt "prepared", i moved on to multiplayer and stopped playing compstomps altogether.
a couple of people i play with started the same way (all of them never really knew about the franchise before coh2 was released). i just felt like i wasnt learning anything by getting stomped by players who had way more experience than i had (besides not having any fun at all, being base pinned after ~10 mins)
anyways just my 2cents

True. I don't know why the hell some people have so much hate for CompStomping. How the hell did they learn how to play? I think many of these people have forgot their old newbie days in vCoH.
I think the game actually needs more "options" in player VS AI. Options like detailed tool-tips, unit details and tutorials and other stuff so-as you said- new players get "prepared" for the real action.
I persuaded a two of my friends to by CoH2, they did and they have only played it until level 20 or so. Even with me trying to "couch" them, they could not get the hang of it. Since CoH2 campaign is completely another thing and you can't learn anything from it for MP, Relic should focus more on Player VS AI.

well, i learned to play the dow2 multi by joining custom 3v3s. i might have played one or two games against the ai but you don't learn much from them (particularly in dow2) and so i only used them to learn the most basic layouts of the faction i played. i know people hated me for my first few games but i improved.

True that. The endless entertainment from cold war military discussions is worth the price alone.

Just like RUSE, planetary annihilation, MoW2 and wargame, it will be for the next weeks, then it will die in oblivion.
At least Grey Goo uses nice concept in the goo army, but it won't be enough to drag larger player pool and even if, the target audience seems to be SC2 players, not CoH2 communities when we compare the games.
So yea, hype will burn out, everything will return to CoH2 being steady and everything else being pretty much dead.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Dry like a good redwine. And really true. I'm not wondering tho, the game looks awefully boring.
[ded jonra] -> Is that according to scripture? A niche, if big enough, isnt the worst to have tho.
Are you a Hypocrit?
